The Sofa on the Ceiling

You can put your sofa on the ceiling,
watch the sun rise on your floor,
see your bulldog dance the samba
as you listen to your goldfish roar.

Feel free to wear a parka in Hawaii
or a bikini at the south pole.
Discover the secrets of the universe
by looking in your toilet bowl.

Ride your surfboard to another galaxy.
Don't let anyone tell you that you can't.
If you like, fill a teacup with topsoil
and grow yourself a bubblegum plant.

You can sail a submarine over the Himalayas
and celebrate Christmas in May.
Some of us go down the rabbit hole
thirty-seven million times a day. - Jeff Barnes
